took for ever to fill her fluids but once she was ready i got these goose bump down my back. She seem different like awaken and pissed at the same time. I drove her aroudn the block and all the kid coming out of school stopped and just stared like they where stuck or somthing. scraded the hell out of a few old poeple. Busted her brake line agian stupid china made flange kit. got to fix that before i head to the welding shop to get her shock mounts fixed( i like it bouncy though) kinda remind me of Ace Vantura(sp?) "No one wants to play with me"(evil grin) yes i did say that while i was driving. but hell it was one hell of a ride............alright.

Sweet - where's the pics showing you out pimpin'!

Alexis · 12-05-2002, 09:29 PM

well i just found out i lost a set of spider gears

when i was hauling ass around my block it slid out of the bed

Went aroudn after i replaced the center pin in the leaf spring, U bolt, and centering bolt in the lift block and i couldn't find it, the spider gears. Someone probly found it

Fixed the brake line though with a little imagination and still need to get the shock mounts reworked. Tomorrows project.

Oh the trucks a 1972 3/4ton 4x4 40's all around , late model 1 ton 14-bolt FF with 4.56 posi.

are you still running a stock power steering set up with the 40s? im thinking of going with 38s next winter and im not sure if ill be able to handle it. does it get any better than owning a 4x with 40s and a 2wd blazer?

Alexis · 12-05-2002, 10:18 PM

the steering box it self is suppose to be after market.......good news, it's a real cool truck and hauls major a$$ but i got to let go of her in about 2 months...... but i will be saving up till the summer to buy another one. a short bed

4x4's are so much fun. Pont running 38's i think you should PM him and see if he's running stock steering box, i dont see why it wouldn't be able to handle it.

i'll get some pictures once i get the shock mounts done and the HEI installed. i'll try to find a place where the setting is nice and let her flex a little.
